Huge thanks to all of you for your good wishes and sweet messages for our wedding this past weekend. It was a truly unforgettable day, certainly surpassing our wildest expectations. Rich and I are indescribably happy, and were immeasurably blessed by the outpouring of love from the friends and family who celebrated with us in Milwaukee, and also from so many of you who have sent such beautiful messages of congratulations and good wishes. I can’t wait to get pictures back from our wedding weekend so I can share all of the details with you here!
We jet off for our honeymoon today, and I’ll be sharing lots of snaps from our travels on instagram, so stay in touch there : ) In the meantime, I have lots of outfits that I’ll be sharing here, including this look from last week when I was running around beautiful Milwaukee running last minute wedding errands. The blue maxi dress pictured today is one of my absolute favorites, and since I’m such a maxi dress hoarder, I thought I’d share a few more that I’m coveting below…

Appropriate for those grueling hot days a the office, but also great for casual weekends, this dress manages to strike the perfect balance. I’m bringing it along in my suitcase on our honeymoon, and even plan on wearing at the beach. Now that’s mileage.

Weekender

A great get-up for casual friday at the office before hitting the road for a weekend away, this ultra comfy jumpsuit and tote bag have been favorites for short trips throughout the summer. Most recently, this amazing brightly embroidered tote bag made the journey with me to Montreal for my bachelorette party and will be coming along again on our honeymoon after the wedding. As for the jumpsuit, it’s proven to be one of my most versatile summer staples. I’ve worn it casually during the day and also dressed it up for wedding-related festivities at night. Cheers to socially acceptable adult onesies.
With just one week left until the wedding, I apologize in advance for the slightly more sparse posting during our wedding week and honeymoon. We have a few days full of last minute to-do’s and then the wedding celebrations commence! Then, Rich and I will be leaving shortly thereafter for our honeymoon. I’ll be sharing lots of peeks at our wedding and honeymoon on instagram, so be sure follow keep up with me there!

Contemporary Classics
Photography by Melanie RiccardiPANTS: Burberry | BLOUSE: Burberry | SCARF: Burberry | FLATS: L.K. Bennett (similar here and here) | SUNGLASSES: Stella McCartney (similar here) | LIP: Nars
When aiming to err on the conservative side of the workwear spectrum, I’m a sucker for pieces that fit the “classic” stylistic bill, but still manage to incorporate some contemporary flair. Exhibit A: these Burberry pieces today. The pants have a classic mid-rise, pintucked front and tapered leg, but the tone-on-tone textured jacquard fabric makes them more than just another pair of black dress pants for the office. The blouse achieves a similar feat with the polka dot pattern, pleated front and pearl buttons. Of course, it doesn’t get much more classic than a Burberry scarf, but the abstract print in super wearable neutral hues brings it into the “now.” All three pieces can keep things squarely in the business formal camp, but still make you feel like you haven’t completely abandoned your sartorial soul in the workplace. Huge wins in my book.
